So I’m re-doing some of my Do Not Press The Button (Or You’ll Delete The Multiverse) character models and I have this duck that is kind of inspired by the Companion Cube in Portal. I want to make it as appealing as possible so the players will attach to it and carry it around with them. Which looks better! I’m more partial to the neck tie (because I like wearing them) but what do you guys think?

(If you want to follow how development of the game is going, a simple wishlist on Steam will be well appreciated STEAM )

    Bow tie but it seems a little too high on the duck’s neck imo, should be moved down closer to the body a smidge

    The bow tie looks better, but feels more cliched to me (not sure why) i think the neck tie would make the character more memorable

    Bow tie, but lower on the neck. Very dapper :)

    (Also, in the future maybe post identical bodies/relation to background. There might be some subconscious preference occurring based on subject’s proximity to viewer or foot appearance.)

    Bowties have been out of fashion for so long they just look silly most of the time. That seems like exactly what you’d want for a character who’s supposed to be whimsical.

    Also a necktie doesn’t go with a tophat. For reasons I can’t explain, that kind of incongruity looks more accidental than it does whimsical.

    Bow tie, it makes the ducks neck look a little less long and that’s more aesthetically pleasing to me, just one opinion.

    The neck tie is less crowded. The bow tie with the hat and the ducks bill has a lot going on all in the same area. Maybe if the bow tie was lower or overall there was a little more space, it’d work better.
